Visitor Guide
The small and unique neighbourhoods of Madeira Park, Kleindale, Garden Bay and Irvine’s Landing are collectively known as Pender Harbour but technically Pender Harbour is the body of water that their shores share.
Visitors envy our lifestyle in Pender Harbour, and one of the main reasons people move here. On the other hand, locals grumble about “Pender Harbour Time” when trying to accomplish, well, just about anything.
If you’ve found yourself on the wrong side of the planet, you may have been looking for Australia’s Sunshine Coast (see Tourism Links in the box at your right).
what is a Pender Harbour lifestyle?
- It’s casual ...unless you’re racing to Langdale to catch a ferry.
- It’s laid-back ...except for the times you must deal with St. Mary’s Hospital, the Government Agent, SCRD, RCMP, Court, Canada Employment Agency, Social Assistance, Motor Vehicle Branch or some other agency and you have to drive to Sechelt or Wilson Creek (or Vancouver!)
- It’s quiet ...except for the sounds of chainsaws on early weekend mornings after a windstorm and the occasional bouts of autumn gunfire.
- It’s comfortable ...except when the power is out for... days.
